Not so much a recent discovery, but the other day I realized I have almost the entire Julie London catalog and can actually hold forth on the differences between her albums and styles as she aged. I have no idea how this happened. I don't remember how I discovered her in the first place. But I'm glad I did.
Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist
Thanks to Qobuz I can endlessly explore new music and artists. I enjoy female vocalists and I’m always searching for new talent whether Pop, Jazz or Classical.
A few I have discovered and very much enjoy:
Laufey: From Iceland and writes very melodic somewhat old school songs
Eva Cassidy: Amazing voice. Best cover of Over The Rainbow I’ve ever heard. Spellbinding and emotional
Diana Panton: Very silky smooth voice. Enjoy anything she sings
Pamela D’Amico: Wonderful Brazilian singer/Guitarist
Kacey Musgraves: Grammy winning artist who spans pop and country. Her song The Architect is a gem She’s been singing for a while but I just found her on a recommendation from my granddaughter
Michelle Simonal: Another wonderful singer from Brazil Love her rendition of the 80s song Some People as well as other covers
Sarah Menescal: Also from Brazil and offers wonderful covers. Especially love her cover of Over My Shoulder
Stacey Kent: What a delicate sweet voice. Especially enjoy her covers of So Nice and The Gentle Rain on the Brazilian Sketches Album
Hope you enjoy these artists as much as I do
Oh although not a singer but a Classical Pianist please check out
Yuja Wang: Phenomenal and well recorded by DG especially her newest
The Vienna Recital

@hifiguy42 Sandy Denny's story always makes me sad. Much like many of her lyrics do. |
